Description
ASTRIDE Pro Max™ is a modern static standing frame with an abduction function, characterized by a robust, stable and durable metal frame. Thanks to an innovative system of smooth and stepless adjustment, precise positioning of the user’s knees and trunk is possible. This unique system allows full control over the body posture during standing, ensuring safety and comfort at the same time.
ASTRIDE Pro Max™ is equipped with easy-to-fasten chest and pelvic belts with independent adjustment in all directions within the pelvic and trunk area. This solution guarantees complete control over the hip positioning, which is important especially in cases of posture defects. Additionally, individually fitted foot stabilizers with the option of abduction using innovative adjustment clamps, along with contoured footrests with side protections, ensure comfort and stability of the lower limbs.
To eliminate pressure on the kneecap and ensure proper leg positioning during standing, ASTRIDE Pro Max™ is equipped with rotating knee supports. Thanks to them, the standing process becomes comfortable and efficient, particularly beneficial for individuals with postural issues.
The sturdy steel base of ASTRIDE Pro Max™ is equipped with wheels and independent brakes, facilitating the movement of the standing frame between rooms. The system of smooth and stepless height adjustment of the standing frame and table, supported by a gas spring, makes therapy and daily activities such as learning, play, or having meals even more accessible and comfortable.

Indications & Contraindications
INDICATIONS
It is recommended in the following cases:
- Cerebral palsy (CP) – various types and forms.
- Brain and spinal cord injuries of various etiologies with limb paresis, severe balance disturbances, and coordination impairments.
- Demyelinating diseases (multiple sclerosis – MS, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis – ALS, and others).
- Meningocele.
- Muscle diseases with paresis and paralysis (including dystrophy, myasthenia gravis, polymyositis).
- Genetic syndromes with limb paresis.
- Degenerative and metabolic diseases of the nervous system.
- Degenerative and rheumatic joint diseases.
- Other diseases with limb paresis, paralysis, and musculoskeletal impairments.
- After injuries, following traumatic brain injuries or spinal cord injuries with limb paresis and paralysis, particularly with quadriplegia (as part of the rehabilitation process or as permanent orthopedic support).
CONTRAINDICATIONS
During standing process, the person being stood must be observed. In case of side effects such as paleness, sweating, or fainting, joint overloading and resulting body deformations, the therapy should be stopped. Further steps should be consulted with a specialist doctor or physiotherapist who prescribed the aid.
Absolute contraindication to standing therapy is the critical condition of the user.
Relative contraindications to standing therapy:
- resting arterial hypertension above 200/110 mmHg, pulmonary hypertension, heart rhythm disorders, unstable asthma, unstable metabolic disorders, moderate stage of heart valve disease.
- Any condition, such as healing fracture or severe osteoporosis, that prevents weight-bearing in any way.
- Fracture with incomplete healing, unless approved by a doctor.
- Postoperative joint load restrictions.
- Pain associated with standing in the stander (caused by dislocation or hip dislocation, excessive stretching of soft tissues, excessive pressure). Dislocation or dislocation of the hip joint without pain is not a contraindication.
People with significant flexion in the hip or knee joints, as well as with ankle joint contractures, may not be able to use the stander. Caution should be taken to ensure that the position in the device does not cause excessive pressure or stretching of the diseased areas of the body. In such cases, standing therapy may be contraindicated until a greater range of motion is achieved in the contracted joints.
For individuals with impaired circulatory system (resting arterial hypertension above 200/110 mmHg, pulmonary hypertension, heart rhythm disorders, moderate stage of heart valve disease); respiratory system (unstable asthma) and unstable metabolic disorders, close monitoring of the user during standing position is necessary to prevent serious complications. This includes particularly monitoring blood pressure, heart rate, and any symptoms of orthostatic hypertension.
